I cannot recommend Jamie and the team highly enough for their incredible assistance with my employment matter. From the very beginning, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism, knowledge, and empathy, making a challenging situation much more manageable. Jamie’s expertise in employment law was evident throughout, as he provided clear and practical advice tailored to my specific circumstances.

The team’s communication was consistently prompt and thorough, ensuring I understood each step of the process and felt supported at all times. Their attention to detail and dedication to achieving the best

I chose Poole Alcock as they were highly recommended on Google and with a lower price than local Solicitors. I took my paperwork to their satellite office in Reading and they took certified copies and sent them to the central office for me. All other correspondence was by direct email, with very quick responses and clear instructions. A well organised operation and an effortless experience overall.

Was met with politeness when calling, couldn’t have been easier to get the help I needed. Excellent advice and was updated continuously throughout the process. Excellent solicitors, and will for sure be using in the future if needed again.

Thank you to Sarah who answered the phone & forwarded me onto the correct solicitor, very polite and easy to speak to, made sure I was sorted within minutes.

Thank you to Kellie, who made sure to update me on signing documents, and kept me updated through out.

Thank you to Jamie, you were extremely easy to speak to about a difficult matter and made sure I came out of our meeting feeling relaxed & happy! Explained terms to me excellently & made sure I was ok before leaving the meeting and made sure all my questions were answered. An email was sent shortly after the meeting outlining what we spoke on & making sure I was taken care of.

Nothing was too much trouble & I highly value how much I was updated throughout the process. The work was done very quickly & I couldn’t have chosen a better solicitors.
